I drive buses in Michigan all the same color but your buses look much better, real works of art, each has a distinct personality. I'm very jealous.

@bobcheckingin It is absolutely representative of their culture. Customizing buses, cars or even tuk-tuks with bright colors, black lights and anything else you can think is quite popular.

The coloroful buses are one of my favorite parts of Central America! Much better than bland old US yellow buses...
